Synopsis for Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm-
156 PM EDT Sun Apr 13 2025
.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure will settle directly over our waters tonight. High
pressure will then shift offshore of the Florida peninsula on
Monday, creating a southerly evening wind surge on Monday evening.
Winds will shift to westerly on Tuesday and will become breezy
ahead of an approaching cold front that is expected to cross our
local waters on Tuesday evening, accompanied by a few showers.
Northwesterly winds will briefly strengthen in the wake of this
frontal passage on Tuesday night, followed by winds shifting to
northerly on Wednesday morning and then northeasterly on Wednesday
afternoon and evening as high pressure briefly wedges down the
southeastern seaboard. This high pressure center will then shift
offshore of the Carolina coast late this week, resulting in
gradually strengthening southeasterly winds by Friday.
